Hello All, Day before yesterday, we went to walmart, and my little 1 had a new demand. Out of blue, she started asking me cupcake liners. I thought ok, she wanted to play something with these liners, so got a pack for her of her choice. This is the one she chooses for herself. It was still ok for me. The Actual demand started, when we reached home, " Mamma, I want to make cupcake. I know u r tired, but don't you worry, I will make it myself. I have an idea, and we can work accordingly." It is her idea to make Apple-Almond cupcake. She also did 1 trick, she told me as she don't like apple, why not grind them and put them in the batter. She even told me, it will be easy way to give apple to the kids, who do not like apple but love cupcakes. I liked the idea, but instead of grinding them I thought grating the apples will taste much better. So, here is the recipe for you guys. Enjoy.. Ingredients for 7 cupcakes -  All purpose Flour - 2 small cups Milk Pow...
